P GIRISH vs Thiru Erankavu Bhagavatti Devaswom Temple, Kavumbhagom PO, Thiruvalla Taluk represented by its secretary. Advocate - P.K.REVI — 305/2025

Case Summary: OS 305/2025 Outcome: Petition dismissed with no order as to costs. Key Facts: P. Girish and V.K. Muraleedharan Nair (temple general body members) sought an injunction to prevent elections at Thiru Erankavu Bhagavatti Devaswom Temple scheduled for 26-10-2025. They contended the governing body's three-year term expired 17-07-2025 without obtaining required general body approval to continue as caretaker committee under Rule 27(1) of temple bylaws. The respondent temple management argued that permission was granted on 20-07-2025 for a six-month interim period. The court found the minutes book supported the respondents' claim, determined no prima facie case existed, and held that the statutory deadline for obtaining retrospective approval had already passed, making further delay imprudent.
